DeMarcus Ware a target for Raider hoping to make team

Alex Daniels is a converted defensive end trying to make it with Oakland as a fullback. Daniels, a rookie from Cincinnati, told reporters his best chance of making the team is to block Cowboys All-Pro outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware in tonight’s exhibition game at Cowboys Stadium.

“If I’ve got to push DeMarcus down the field 20 yards, I’m going to keep pushing him,” Daniels siad. “I’m going to keep pushing him until the whistle blows, then I’ll stop, then I’ll come back to the huddle and I’ll do it again. Whatever they need me to do, I’m going to do it.”

Unfortunately for Daniels, he is unlikely to be on the field at same time as Ware, whose game will end in the first quarter. It’s the thought that counts.
